Hey Michael, Gringo sounds like a sweet ride. Is it automatic? I have a
90 GL, automatic. It's rust-free, but has a little deer damge on the nose.
Still, this thing is smooth, like butta. I imagine yours is too. So, you
have to think in terms of replacement. I don't think you can replace it
with 3K. Furthermore, if you only spent 2.5K, hell just keep it.
From a functionality point of view, Gringo is superb. There are few, if
any, vehices out there with this flexibility and drivability.

Miguel (secretly pleased that 'not everyone gets it')
